Safe, positive and healthy human to dog interactions start with learning to understand and speak their language. This course has been designed to give Animal Professionals, Rescue Volunteers and dog owners the tools necessary to better read canine body language, correctly determine the animal’s emotional state, understand their needs, and recognize early warning signs of behavioural concerns. In addition to learning how to read canine body language, learners also review the distinct training needs of each breed group, and investigate least intrusive, minimally aversive, training techniques designed to satisfy the unique needs of the individual dog. Canine Foundations is proud to offer 4 OAVT (Ontario Association of Veterinary Technicians), 3.5 CCPDT (Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers) and 4 IAABC (International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants) Continuing Education Credits for Behaviour 101.
